Manage episode 360630843 series 3440344
Democrat Jennie Armstrong is from just outside of New Orleans, Louisiana. Although she grew up working class, she did not allow her background to narrow her ambition and after her undergraduate degree at Louisiana State University she earned a Master’s degree from Oxford University and has since worked in Nepal, Myanmar, Rwanda, and Egypt. She started two companies, both of which she still owns. She met her husband Ben while facetiming with a friend in early 2019. Ben invited her on an Alaska road trip on that initial call. Jennie said yes, and never left. We discuss that and how she ended up as an Alaska State House Representative.
